Here in the U.S., we can't just make a big deal out of something minor. It seems that for whatever reason we have to blow it way out of proportion and extend it to condemn nearly every damn thing that is even remotely similar, and then make a huge pointless deal about everything. And usually these things are brought about by religious people, taking an extremist stance on some aspect of their religion any pushing to make everyone else abide by it just to please themselves.

The culprits are typically Christians. That religious cult tends to forbid everything that is natural and any other non-Christian beliefs, which ends up spawning outrageously nonsensical crap like this, that tends to demonize everyone and everything in existence.
